Andrew Nicholas Georg Lovgren (born November 19, 1993), known professionally as Deaton Chris Anthony, is an American singer-songwriter and producer from Olathe, Kansas. From 2015 to 2020, he independently released the albums BB (2015) and BO Y (2019), and the EP BOOGY WOOGY (2020), before he signed with the British independent record label Dirty Hit. He released his first album under the label, SID THE KID, in 2022. Aside from producing music, he also designs and sells rugs, clothes, shoes, and hats.[2]

He has produced music for Clairo and Charli XCX. His style has been described as bedroom pop, R&B, and electronic pop. He currently lives in Los Angeles, California.

Career[edit]

Lovgren started making music in Kansas in 2015.[3] He released his first album, BB, in 2015, available on cassette tape. In 2017, he moved to Echo Park, Los Angeles, to further pursue music. He released "BO Y" in 2019, with guest appearances from Clairo, Omar Apollo, and UMI. In 2020, he released his first EP, BOOGY WOOGY.[4] He released the album SID THE KID in 2022, with guest appearances from Benee and Beabadoobee.[5]

During the same time that Lovgren began making music, he also became a fashion designer. He makes clothes by taking pieces from other clothes and sewing them together. Vogue writer Rachel Hahn said that "he'll take one, hand-paint it, cut it up, and make a wonky pattern, creating a completely new design each time".[2] Lovgren sells the designs on his website. He also creates photo-realistic rugs, often of faces.[3]

In an interview with Vans, Lovgren has said that he enjoys making music with old equipment and that he often uses a bowling alley as a source of inspiration for his music. During a partnership, Vans sold bowling shoes that Lovgren designed.[6][7]
